Day 8, Tranny Saga 3
No word today from the tranny shop. The "hope" I was given that it was merely a gasket (fujibond) leak is waning. I am trying to stay away from them to keep them nervous. Last time, I was in there every day, checking up on the progress. Right now, I'm just going to let the angst build until I blow a mental gasket. Then, I'll go see them. Meanwhile, I think I'll go get in my 2002 Stratus rental and go home.
(Am I sick to be rather driving a 10 year old car than a brand spankin' new one? )

I'd trust a 10 year old SVX with a quirky tranny than I would a new Dodge product..
(Maybe I have "Stratus-fear") Seriously, I hope you get good news before the weekend. There can only be so many of them "meet gremlins" in one tranny.

Guys near Aredub:
Please hold an emergency meet in his area this weekend. Aredub has a knack to always get the car back just before a meet. Or at the very least it'll ease his anxiety seeing another SVX... VK |

Start sending the tranny shop dismembered bits of childrens dolls with notes that say "Fix his tranny before he does it again!"
That almost always works for me... |

YIKES!! Not the kneecaps. I've had one of mine busted (no, not for stiffing the loan shark -- in a car wreck), and I wouldn't wish that on my WORST enemy.
